Crowded airwaves

Samuel was a boy in priest Eli's ministry. While Samuel was sleeping, he heard a voice calling out his name. This happened several times. But Samuel had no clue where the voice was coming from or who was speaking. He consulted Eli and it was suggested that the Lord was calling out his name. 

The next time his name was called out, Samuel responded - "speak, for your servant is listening".  

I wonder if the lord speaks to us today, would we be listening to him? Our airwaves and mind is so crowded with junk, both from work and otherwise, that it is almost impossible to listen to anyone, let alone to God himself. 

In todays era, we ought to compulsorily go into silent modes and exercise our antennas so that we could hear from the source of all wisdom and counsel. Let's get back to listening.
